Hello, you can look into our goldwave scripts, there is a key, 1
function and a script to read the progress bar, and a call to the
newtext event function as well, in addition to it, it can also be
turned-off.
Hope this helps, since goldwavedoesn't contain the fixed ctrl ids, so
some other great logic is used, go look at it.
www.blind-geek-zone.net,
jaws-users.com
www.ultrauniverse.co.cc
all these 3 sites I am aware of where you can get this script set.
Thank you.
